My family are not religious at all, yet they preach to me about doing the right thing and being a good person. Because of this I have always been firmly grounded and thought seeing is believing.

When ever I have been in a church or any other religious place I have always felt a certain belonging; a unique inner peace.

Faith is not necessarily a bad thing. We all need to believe in something in order to see the bigger picture. Maybe I am religious without even knowing it, or perhaps just open to opinion.

In many different religions faith is what drives those who are devoted. It brings them a sense of belonging and enlightenment.

I often wonder what it would be like to feel enlightened – would this cure our inner pain?
